FRACTAL DESIGN Meshify 2 Light Tint gehard glas zwart

The Fractal Design Meshify 2 Tower Black is a mid-tower PC case focused on high airflow, flexible storage options and modular interior layouts. It features a removable front nylon filter and a hinged removable mesh front panel that simplifies access to front fan mounts. The case ships with three Dynamic X2 GP-14 fans preinstalled and supports expansion to a total of nine fans. The front I/O includes a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port for fast data transfer and charging.

Advantages

The Meshify 2 offers a convertible interior that supports a dedicated Storage Layout for up to 11 HDDs and four dedicated SSD mounts using included trays, brackets and a Multibracket. Its transformable design uses a movable wall to optimize custom builds, and a detachable PSU cable shield with integrated cable guides and velcro straps simplifies cable management. Tool-less, top-latching side panels allow quick access while preventing accidental drops. The ultra-slim Nexus+ 2 fan hub controls multiple PWM and 3-pin fans from a compact unit.

Suitable for

• High-airflow gaming or workstation builds requiring multiple case fans and large radiators
• Storage-heavy systems needing many HDDs and several SSDs (convertible Storage Layout)
• Custom water-cooling loops with support for large reservoirs and up to 420 mm radiators in the default layout
• Builders who need easy internal access and advanced cable management

How to use

Install the motherboard and power supply in the usual manner, using the removable PSU shield to route cables behind the motherboard tray and secure them with the integrated guides and velcro straps. Choose the default Open Layout for large radiators and reservoirs or convert to the Storage Layout by relocating the internal movable wall and installing the provided trays, brackets and Multibracket to accommodate additional HDDs and SSDs. Remove the front nylon filter and hinged mesh panel for cleaning or to access front fan mounts. Connect fans to the Nexus+ 2 fan hub and plug the hub into a motherboard header or power source as instructed in the included manual.

Recommendations

For optimal cooling performance, keep the front nylon filter clean and ensure unobstructed intake airflow. When building a storage-heavy configuration, verify clearances for HDD cages and cable routing before finalizing component placement. For custom water loops, plan radiator orientation and reservoir placement with the removable top and convertible interior in mind.
